Starship Physics: My first LD, loved making this! :)
- To build your ship paint with the mouse. WARNING: After building there is a 10 second construction penalty where you cannot fire! - The controls are slow until you improve the starship with more thrusters. - If all your thrusters are destroyed you loose. - Build your own starship and fight progressively tougher enemies with 7 ranks of difficulty. - Pixel-physics based - Physical attachments: Hull, Lasers, Thrusters, Rare Shield Drops (if your lasers get destroyed, you can't shoot) - Development Stream: http://www.twitch.tv/cwkx/b/451269558 - "If you can't get in game and start killing stuff quickly, I don't wanna play it" -good friend of mine said this a long time ago.
The art style and pretty everything in this game is hectic. Awesome job for something created in such a short amount of time. Nice work, please keep it up. :)
Cool! Awesome art style. A little slow paced - especially the construction, and it didn't have much noticable effect on my ship.. Or so I thought at least.
Brilliant game. Rather enjoyed it. Seems I got carried away with it actually. After an hour though, it became clear quite quickly that there was no way to lose once I'd got my solid laser ship. Even on my quad core machine, things started to get a bit flaky dealing with all the particles when I fired.
Really fun. Terrible strain on my machine though. Esp when i fired mass lasers at a large enemy. The lasers are more like bombs u have to swing at your enemy though, since they start with your ships' momentum
Thanks all for your comments - I may fork it to improve the physics, polish it, but will leave this LD48 entry as it is. Was just going for a fun "get in and shoot/build stuff" game :)
For me the ultimate space ship was a straight line, a single cube high horizontal line. The left half thrusters, the right half lasers. It's easy to evade attacks, easy to collect, only spawns the little guys, and tosses some nasty javelins.

Works everywhere except Linux :(

The only thing that's a bit wonky is the lasers since in order to properly make them go where you want you have to move and shoot.
Reminds me building spaceships on Kindom hearts or Captain comando. Nice use of cubes :)
heres a thumbs up!

Is there anything else to do in the game? Just collecting parts for ship can get boring.
and great fun!

I had a little trouble choosing where to shot and distinguishing some blocks over others but overall I liked it.
excelent!!
